Ditto, and claiming Palmer had a substantially expanded playbook due to his arm is a silly made up claim to explain away the cheat sheet he's always had to use. Does every strong armed QB use a cheat sheet? No.
This doesn't mean Palmer was a bad QB, but he had weaknesses just like Dalton and just about any other good-but-not-elite QB.
To those saying Dalton is the king of batted balls, name a game where he had several batted down, other than this last one and his playoff game when he was a rookie. You can't, and that's why you had to go back 5 years to name another example.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
